I have noticed that I am not the only one impatient with the tokens coming up and I end up with two. I found that if you click on the flowers it will take you to a link to delete the extra one. =)

I have also found a link to calculate birth dates, so when you only have a date of death & the headstone gives you their years it will give you the date of birth. http://longislandgenealogy.com/birth.html

I have met the most wonderful people with Find-a-Grave. What a great family we have here. Thank you all for doing what you do.

Everyone has been so generous with their photos that I would like to reciprocate. You may use my photos in you family trees. All I ask is for a thank you and recognition from whom you got them.

Happy Hunting =)

Strangers in the Box

By Pamela A. Harazim

Come, look with me inside this drawer, In this box I've often seen, At the pictures, black and white, Faces proud, still, serene. I wish I knew the people, These strangers in the box, Their names and all their memories Are lost among my socks. I wonder what their lives were like.How did they spend their days? What about their special times? I'll never know their ways. If only someone had taken time To tell who, what, where, when, These faces of my heritage Would come to life again. Could this become the fateOf the pictures we take today? The faces and the memories Someday to be tossed away? Make time to save your pictures, Seize the opportunity when it knocks, Or someday you and yours could beThe strangers in the box.

RE: RodesOf course you may use the photos - they are not mine but were found on the DAR website for Waynesboro, Virginia.

I think we may be related as I am also attached to the Rodes. I have DNA proof to Sarah Harris who was married to John Rodes II who was the grandson of Charles Rodes. Sarah was the daughter of Robert Overton Harris & Mourning Gleason Glenn. They were my 8th GGrandparents - she my 7th Great Grand Aunt.

If you're related, perhaps we can share trees...mine is private as well.
